3rd & 5, and Beau comes in for QB, and seems to misread the read-option.

Barker in for a 40-yard fg attempt, and it's good

27-3, PSU, with 8:17 left in the 4th qtr

did Donkoh get hurt?...i haven't seen him this drive and possibly the one before
No. Franklin wants to get Rucci time but he's been terrible.

Question for folks who know better, and sorry if this has been mentioned, but why does the field look so rough? Normally our turf grass folks have the field pristine regardless of weather, but half the field looks dead today.

I don't know definitively. My guess would be that they had over a week of rain, and either the rain, or the tarp on the field for too long to protect against the rain, may have caused the field to look less than pristine.

It never "recovered" from last week. At least that is what the PSU radio guys said during pregame. There was a lot of rain during the last week.

Now we are talking about a football game from last week and how one turns the game off because he is a jag-off for thinking that Alabama was going for an easy win. They definitely have mailed this game in....

3rd & goal from the PSU 1, and PSU calls TO with 20 sec left.

UCLA wants their 1st TD of the day, and PSU's D wants to keep them out of the endzone.

JFC. Whomever is running the stadium audio is clearly bored out of their skull.

"ALL ABOOOOOOARD!"
5 seconds later...
"ALL ABOOOOOOARD!"
5 seconds later...
"ALL ABOOOOOOARD!"

Give it a rest, my dude.

UCLA with a nice pass into the endzone.

They are going for 2, and convert with a shovel pass.

27-11, PSU, with 0:16 left in the game

Jenny has become a disappointing sideline contributor. She keeps cloaking her torso.
